Who I'm Not
Please know that who you think I am, isnt me.
If you think I'm shy it is for the sole reason that you refuse to see me as outgoing.
If you think that I am a leader it's because you refuse to see me as controlling.
If you see me as simply as a girl who sits alone sometimes,
It is because you are wrong.
I am rainy days when the sun refuses to shine.
I am the stars you see when you look up into the night sky.
I am your favorite song when you needed it most.
I am what you fear when the lights go out.
I am the ash that was left over from the forest fire.
I am the flowers growing in the cracks of the sidewalk.
I am more than shy or outgoing,
I am limitless.
So see me as I am or not at all,
But know that I am only invisible because you made me.
